CHICAGO, November 18 (#) the outcome of games at Colur | Ohio, and Ann Arbor, Mich., today hung the championship of the West- ern Conference's thirty-second foot ball season. Three teams awaited the opening whistle on these two gridirons know- ing a title was in the balance. At Co-| Jumbus, Tilinois had to defeat the er- ratic and maligned Ohio State to pro- | tect a record unscarred by defeat. At Ann Arbor, Minnesota and Mich- | igan each had a chance at a title tie, | in case of victory. Minnesota has not | been beaten, hut has been tied. Mich- | igan lost to lllinois, but won all her | other conference zames. Illinois has four Big Ten victories in | a row, and brilliant prospects for a fifth, unless one of the unforeseen breaks of foot ball roosts on the ban ners of Ohio State. Ohio needs this victory to brighten a very distressing season, what with attacks upon Coach Wilce and shattered morale and two conference beatings in a row. Clear out of the title race. Ohio would find plenty of satisfaction in pulling down | the unbeaten Illini. Chance for Michigan. Title hopes at Ann Arbor also de- pend upon the humbhing of Lllinois. Minnesota, like Illinois, has not been beaten this Fall, but Indiana held the Gophers to a 14-14 tie, and it will take & victory over Michigan to give the Minnesotans any chance to claim any- thing. | I¢ 1llinois should lose and Michigan | ‘win, these two then would split up the | conference championship, on a per- centage basis, though Illinois wor from Michigan, 14-0, three weeks ago. ‘The conference as an organization pays no attention to foot ball or other champlonships, so there is no court of last resort, except for the coaches, the alumni, the sideline experts and geveral thousand students. ‘The two games at Chicago, on the south side at the University of Chi- cago and up north at Northwestern | University, include the three teams now tied for last-place in the Big Ten. Towa and Northwestern, the one confident and smiling and the other dogged and stern, had Dyche Stadium as their battleground, with the loser | sure of one place in the cellar. Wisconsin Is Due. ‘Wisconsin has its back to the wall to keep out of last place. But the Badgers figured they were just about due to win over the crippled Chicago team, which is winding up a ssason of six hard conference contests and a Pennsylvania game, a_dose heavier than the Maroons could stand with- | out stagsering. The Purdue-Indiana game offered many reasons for cheer among the partisans of both schools. Wilcox and Welch, teamed in the Purdue backfield, were expected to startle | their Hoosier enemies with long runs. But Indiara pointed to a forward wall | which charged Minnesota to a stand- still, and a couple of shifty ball car. riers of their own in Rennett and Rinehart. This latter youth, one of the nine sophomores on the Indiana | team, is unique in the conference | this year. He hooted over the cross | bar the only fleld goal kicked in the Big Ten this vear, in the very first game he played, against Kentucky. Great Social Event. BOSTON, November 19 (#).— | Thousands of Yale men, confident of & successful termination of the season for the best eleven Yale has had in | recent vears, today turned their at-| tention to the Harvard Stadium and | the forty-sixth foot ball game with an ancient foe.

Tilinois’ hopes for undisputed cham- pionship of the Big Ten depended on the game, while Ohio State had before | it the opportunity at least of partially redeeming a disappointing season. Iver since the stinging defeat suffered from Michigan, the Buckeyes have been pointed with today’s game in mind. Not only did Ohio State have the task of stopping Illinois’ precise team- work, but also the added job of pro- viding excitement for several thousand | umni_in _their homecoming - celebra- | tion. The homecoming fete got under way yesterday with the crowning of the homecoming queen. Further cere- monies were set for an hour preceding the ame at Ohio Stadium today, Both Illinois and Ohio State sup- porters found comfort in the traditions of their games as they speculated on the outcome. In the past the “under- dog” team—Ohio State this time—re- quently has upset all predictions and won. On the other hand, six times in the last seven years the triumph has gone to the team playing away from home.

In his answer Dempsey demands £300,000 with interest from August 1, when Dempsey claims they arted company as a fistic combina- tion.

The attorneys said the trial, postponed Wednesday because of the illness of Arthur Driscoll, chief counsel for Dempsey, would be re- sumed Monday. Replying to Kearns’ claim for serv- ices, Dempsey says his former man- ager failed to make a proper division of his winnings, between July 1, 1917, when Kearns and Dempsey joined until August, 19 when Demp- sey says they parted. Dempsey says in’ his reply Kearns “wronstully ap- propriated to himself a sum of money aggregating $500,000 from the =said moneys of the defendant 1!101!\7‘5»\%‘ which came into his hands, and the said amount was ken by the com- | nt (Kearns) without the defend- consent and by a process of de- | ng the defendant.” 'G.

In other words, when the expert is off his game he tends to hook, whereas when Mr. Average Golfer steps up to lace one out and doesn’t it's a slice, and he, too, is off his game. When you are not a skilled golfer your mistake which causes the slice is tightening the whole body as vou swing, the idea being that you will kill the ball. shtening up the body or pressing causes one to get his body in ahead of his hands. The inevitable slice follows. A star will do anythinz rather than get his body in ahead of his hands. That's his one hobby. But he will occasionally tense his fingers and wrists. That will cause him to get his right hand over as he hits. Result - & hook. &1 not .| every prospeet t vclock | November 19 (P | SPORTS. AN AS U. S.
